Gear Hire

Gear hire on Lord Howe Island offers a convenient way to explore the island’s pristine waters with comfort and safety. Guests can rent adult and children’s masks, snorkels, and fins for a full day or multiple days, making it easy to enjoy the lagoon, Ned’s Beach, Middle Beach, Sylph’s Hole, and other snorkeling spots. Wetsuits are available in a wide range of sizes, from XXS to XXL for adults and sizes 2 to 14 for children, ensuring a comfortable fit for everyone. Weight belts and dive torches are also available for hire, though a freediving certification is required to rent weights.

Pick up and return for gear hire is scheduled between 8:30am and 5:00pm daily. This allows guests to plan their snorkeling and diving adventures at their own pace. The hire equipment supports both beginners and experienced snorkelers, providing safety and convenience for exploring the shallow reefs and sheltered lagoons around the island. Whether you are visiting for a single day or a full week, the gear hire ensures you have all the essential equipment needed to fully enjoy the stunning underwater world of Lord Howe Island.
